Christal Schlegel

Administrative Assistant

Christal moved to Tennessee in 2012 with husband Stephen, who is retired military. Both Christal and Stephen recently completed their degrees at our local Austin Peay State University. In their free time they enjoy traveling together and visiting their grandchildren. Both Christal and Stephen have been instrumental in contributing to the effectiveness of FCA in our area. While Christal regularly assists in keeping the office administration running smoothly, Stephen has been known to share his talents in graphic design. FCA has given them an opportunity to invest in their community in an eternal way. Christal speaks of FCA as "an exceptional ministry that not only challenges us to be Christ-like, but also encourages us to be His hands and feet."
